  2. What is Java? Features of Java Simple Object-Oriented Portable Platform independent Secured • Robust • Architecture neutral • Interpreted • High Performance • Multithreaded • Distributed • Dynamic

  3. What is ? Java is a programming language and a platform. Java is a high level, robust, object-oriented and secure programming language. Java was developed by Sun Microsystems (which is now the subsidiary of Oracle) in the year 1995. James Gosling is known as the father of Java. Before Java, its name was Oak. Since Oak was already a registered company, so James Gosling and his team changed the name from Oak to Java. Platform: Any hardware or software environment in which a program runs, is known as a platform. Since Java has a runtime environment (JRE) and API, it is called a platform.

  4. Features of Java 7. Architecture neutral 8. Interpreted 9. High Performance 10. Multithreaded 11. Distributed 12. Dynamic The primary objective of Java programming language creation was to make it portable, simple and secure programming language. Apart from this, there are also some excellent features which play an important role in the popularity of this language. The features of Java are also known as Java buzzwords. The most important features of the Java are: Simple Object-Oriented Portable Platform independent Secured Robust

  5. Simple Java is very easy to learn, and its syntax is simple, clean and easy to understand. According to Sun Microsystem, Java language is a simple programming language because: Java syntax is based on C++ (so easier for programmers to learn it after C++). Java has removed many complicated and rarely-used features, for example, explicit pointers, operator overloading, etc. There is no need to remove unreferenced objects because there is an Automatic Garbage Collection in Java.

  6. Object-oriented Object-oriented programming (OOPs) is a methodology that simplifies software development and maintenance by providing some rules. Basic concepts of OOPs are: Object Class Inheritance Polymorphism Abstraction Encapsulation

  7. Platform Independent Java is platform independent because it is different from other languages like C, C++, etc. which are compiled into platform specific machines while Java is a write once, run anywhere language. A platform is the hardware or software environment in which a program runs. There are two types of platforms software-based and hardware-based. Java provides a software-based platform. The Java platform differs from most other platforms in the sense that it is a software-based platform that runs on top of other hardware-based platforms. It has two components: Runtime Environment API(Application Programming Interface) Java code can be executed on multiple platforms, for example, Windows, Linux, Sun Solaris, Mac/OS, etc. Java code is compiled by the compiler and converted into bytecode. This bytecode is a platform-independent code because it can be run on multiple platforms, i.e., Write Once and Run Anywhere (WORA).

  8. Secured Java is best known for its security. With Java, we can develop virus-free systems. Java is secured because: No explicit pointer Java Programs run inside a virtual machine sandbox Classloader: Classloader in Java is a part of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) which is used to load Java classes into the Java Virtual Machine dynamically. It adds security by separating the package for the classes of the local file system from those that are imported from network sources. Bytecode Verifier: It checks the code fragments for illegal code that can violate access rights to objects. Security Manager: It determines what resources a class can access such as reading and writing to the local disk.

  9. Robust The English meaning of Robust is strong. Java is robust because: It uses strong memory management. There is a lack of pointers that avoids security problems. Java provides automatic garbage collection which runs on the Java Virtual Machine to get rid of objects which are not being used by a Java application anymore. There are exception handling and the type checking mechanism in Java. All these points make Java robust.

  10. Architecture-neutral Portable Java is architecture neutral because there are no implementation dependent features, for example, the size of primitive types is fixed. In C programming, int data type occupies 2 bytes of memory for 32-bit architecture and 4 bytes of memory for 64-bit architecture. However, it occupies 4 bytes of memory for both 32 and 64-bit architectures in Java. Java is portable because it facilitates you to carry the Java bytecode to any platform. It doesn't require any implementation.

  11. High-performance Distributed Java is faster than other traditional interpreted programming languages because Java bytecode is "close" to native code. It is still a little bit slower than a compiled language (e.g., C++). Java is an interpreted language that is why it is slower than compiled languages, e.g., C, C++, etc. Java is distributed because it facilitates users to create distributed applications in Java. RMI and EJB are used for creating distributed applications. This feature of Java makes us able to access files by calling the methods from any machine on the internet.

  12. Multi-Threaded Dynamic A thread is like a separate program, executing concurrently. We can write Java programs that deal with many tasks at once by defining multiple threads. The main advantage of multi-threading is that it doesn't occupy memory for each thread. It shares a common memory area. Threads are important for multimedia, Web applications, etc. Java is a dynamic language. It supports the dynamic loading of classes. It means classes are loaded on demand. It also supports functions from its native languages, i.e., C and C++. Java supports dynamic compilation and automatic memory management (garbage collection).
